Aspects are provided allowing a base station to configure a UE to accumulate CSI over time for downlink data transmissions, and to transfer the accumulated CSI to a base station in a CSI report in response to a CSI report trigger event, thereby improving efficiency in CSI reporting and subsequent transmission reliability. Initially, the base station configures a CSI report trigger event and sends a plurality of data transmissions to a UE. The UE receives the data transmissions and then identifies the CSI report trigger event. Afterwards, the UE sends a CSI report to the base station including a CSI for each of the data transmissions in response to the CSI report trigger event. The base station may then adjust MCS or other parameters for subsequent data transmissions in response to the CSI report.
